"Best holiday in Cook Islands"

10.0

What a fabulous resort. We opted for the Adults only section at Sanctuary but was able to utilise the Rarotongan facilities as well. Their nightly entertainment was better than Sanctuary, so we mainly had dinner over there. The Legends show as amazing so highly recommend booking that in advance. Food was always really delicious and lots to choose from. Best pizza we’ve had in a long time. We had a beachfront villa upstairs and it was fabulous. Very spacious and bed was very comfortable. All the staff were wonderful and happy in their daily roles. Recommend buying the 10 trip bus pass as it’s the easiest to get around if you don’t want to rent a car or scooter. The snorkeling in the lagoon was again fabulous. Highly recommend booking the Koko Island cruise. Such a fun day well spent. We will definitely be back soon.

"Very Satisfied!"

10.0

We stayed for a week and loved the Resort. The rooms were clean (Thank you Sia) and all of the staff were very friendly and helpful. We especially thought Sake went over and beyond to make sure we were happy while working at the front desk or as our waiter. He is such a hard worker) He even offered (on his day off) to show us to a special spot that was not on the map. ♥️ The resort offered complimentary snorkeling gear, paddle boards, and kayaks to all the guests which is amazing! The water and views were great and the beach was nice and quiet. We even got to see two turtles on our last day snorkeling! The only wish we had was that there was a little more variety on the menu. Like offering "specials" each day for lunch and dinner. It was the same menu all day, everyday so we ventured out for food on some days since we stayed 7 days and wanted a little more variety Thank you again a great stay. Can't wait to come back!

"Very Good"

7.0

Die Lage mit der Lagune ist sensationell. Professionelle Unterstützung mit gratis Verleih von allem, was es für ein tolles Schnorchelerlebnis braucht. Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal überall. Bietet unglaublich viele Aktivitäten für Gross und Klein.

Das Zimmer (Deluxe Beachfront Suite) war sehr alt. Das Fliegengitter im Bad defekt und das Fenster liess sich nur mit einem Trick schliessen bei abgebrochenem Schloss. Im Vergleich zum sonst wunderschönen Resort war das Zimmer eine Enttäuschung.

"Best Beach, pool and staff 👌 Will come back..."

10.0

We loved our time at the Rarotongan Beach Resort and Lagoonarium in March 2026. The pool was the highlight for the kids for sure. And the beach is stunning (saw eels, a turtle and every kind of fish imaginable). Laite and Sake were amazing for dinner service 3 nights in a row!! They both helped my son open a coconut and then had the kids ice cream served in each half!! And Moe was amazing on the last day too as my son split his eyelid open poolside. She suggested we go to the hospital...and management (I believe it was) arranged transport to the hospital for us with all of our luggage!! The whole team came together to help us! Would definitely come back... 💕👌🐢🐠🍹
